Tripp Lite OM5 Fibre Cable 10 m

This Tripp Lite N820-10M-OM5 is a duplex multimode fibre patch cable rated OM5 for wideband 50/125 performance. It carries 40/100 Gb Ethernet signals over 10 metres with lime green jacket identification. The cable suits data centres, LANs and SANs needing high-bandwidth links. Male LC connectors terminate both ends for direct equipment connection.

Installation notes for LC duplex patch cable

Push-pull LC connectors seat with a click; verify polarity before latching to avoid crossed fibres. The 3 mm jacket bends cleanly in dense panels but respect the minimum bend radius to prevent core damage. Clean ferrule end-faces with a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol before every mating. Backward compatibility with OM3 and OM4 links means existing infrastructure accepts the cable without re-termination.

Suits 40/100 Gb short-reach links.

Buyers building 40/100 Gb Ethernet, parallel optics or VCSEL-based interconnects up to 300 metres at 850 nm will find the OM5 bandwidth headroom useful. The 10 metre length fits rack-to-rack or row-to-row patches in standard cabinets. Installers needing single-mode reach, armoured outdoor plant or MPO trunk connectivity should select a different cable type.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the cable is carrying 40/100 Gb Ethernet traffic after connecting the LC male ends?

Check link lights on the switch or transceiver; a solid green or amber LED on both ports confirms the 50/125 OM5 duplex link is active and passing 40/100 Gb traffic at 850 nm.

What comes in the box and what must I supply separately?

The package contains the 10 m (32 ft) lime-green duplex OM5 patch cable with LC male connectors on both ends; you must provide compatible SFP+ or QSFP+ transceivers and patch-panel adapters.

Which OM5 length should I choose for a 100 Gb run between two racks?

Select the 10 m (33 ft) N820-10M-OM5 version; it is rated for 40/100 Gb speeds up to 300 meters at 850 nm, so a 10 m run is well within the supported distance.
